Preparations
N On level ground, position the
machine so that the filler cap is
facing up.
N Before fueling, clean the filler cap
and the area around it to ensure that
no dirt falls into the tank.
Always thoroughly shake the mixture in
the canister before fueling your
machine.
Opening
N Raise the grip into an upright
position.
N Turn the cap counterclockwise
(approx. 1/4 turn).
N Remove fuel filler cap.
Refueling
Take care not to spill fuel while fueling
and do not overfill the tank.
Closing
With grip in an upright position:
N Insert the cap – positioning marks
on the cap and the fuel tank opening
must line up.
N The cap should drop fully into the
opening in this position.
N While pressing the cap down, twist it
firmly clockwise as far as it will go
(approx. 1/4 turn).
N Fold down the grip.
Fueling
When fueling on a slope, always
position the machine so that the
filler cap is facing uphill.
In order to reduce the risk of burns
or other personal injury from
escaping gas vapor and fumes,
remove the fuel filler cap carefully
so as to allow any pressure build-
up in the tank to release slowly.
